People wait to use the cash machine at a branch of the Allied Irish Bank in Grafton street, Dublin, Ireland, Thursday, March, 31, 2011. The latest estimate of the cost of the Irish banking crisis is expected to be revealed later on Thursday with the release of bank stress test results. They are expected to show the banks need an extra 30 billion euros (26.3 billion pounds, 42.29 billion dollars). The Irish Central Bank has tested four lenders - Allied Irish Banks, Bank of Ireland, Educational Building Society (EBS) and the Irish Life & Permanent. The latest capital injection is expected to leave all four institutions in majority government ownership. (AP Photo / Peter Morrison)
